kayza: It's Best Buy. They are NOT going to have the best prices and selection on this stuff.

That was exactly my thought too but, in rooting around looking to see what HP had to offer directly, the BB price was actually pretty close to buying from HP directly which surprised me.

B&H is a good recommendation and I hadn't thought to look there as I still associated them with just camera equipment/graphic software. It's nice to know you've had a good experience with the HP ProBooks also--I've never seen/used an EliteBook.
